Walk in Walts Footsteps Tour..

Hello,
I am a big fan and historian of Walt Disney and his Disneyland. I have read much about this tour and have been planning to do it for a few years. Since taking out the apartment tour (over the Firehouse) I have been putting it off.

Has anyone else recently done the tour and recommend it?

Thanks!
Den

I myself have not recently done the tour but I have in the past. Even though the Apartment was taken out I think its still going to be really fun. I would go ahead and do it if I were you.

Rafikiman & I did it in May. It was wonderful. There were only the 2 of us & one other guest & the CM so it was very personal. I would highly recommend it.

wow, I would LOVE to do it with only one other guest, I think that would make it a much more one on one tour of the park.

Re: Walk in Walts Footsteps Tour..

I was SO disappointed with this tour. I knew more than our tour guide by far, she talked more about her expierences in the park than she did any fun facts and tidbits, who cares that she fell and scraped her knee at this exact spot when she was 9! Seeing Club 33 was cool though, boy would it ever be amazing to be a member of such a exclusive club! Hopefully the tour can be better and I just heppened to get an annoying guide...but my expierence was not an enjoyable one.

Re: Walk in Walts Footsteps Tour..

Yeah our tour hostess was a bit lame, we new more than her!, but she had some good tips, that is how I found out I could ride in the "wheel house" of the MArk Twain and got to blow the whistle. That is my favorite sound ever!

So - because of that tip, I gave her thumbs up. I have a picture of me standing, right where Walt stood in an older picture in the wheel house!!
Plus I was able to get a book of "matches" from Club 33.

Yea I have gotten tour guides like that before, I cant stand it when they tell you not so interesting personal stories, we want the behind the scenes stuff, not stories of knee scraping, lol you know what I mean....I think?
